By the date of the first proposed debate, September 16, 2024, over 1 million Americans will have likely voted. By the date of the second proposed debate, October 1, 2024, the number of Americans who will have likely cast a ballot will be over 3 million, an increase of 225%.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The pair estimated that 8.7 million people would have voted by the time of the third debate on Oct. 9. They also claimed that people were \u201crobbed\u201d of a \u201ctrue and robust debate\u201d by having the two debates in the 2020 election too late in the election period.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign also said more debates were necessary and that the debates should begin immediately. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFormer President <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/abraham-lincoln\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Abraham Lincoln<\/a> and former U.S. Senator Stephen A. Douglas held seven debates in their storied 1858 U.S. Senate battle in Illinois,\u201d they said. \u201cCertainly today\u2019s America deserves as much.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Trump himself echoed the need for more debates early on in the election period, claiming the state of the country was so bad. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe country is in such trouble,\u201d Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/trump-campaign-debates-biden-much-earlier-more-often\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>told<\/a> Fox News Digital. \u201cWhat are Biden\u2019s plans? I would fully accept any debate, anywhere, anytime, anyplace. \u2026 I think it is important that we debate, and the earlier, the better because people have to find out what is going on with America. We are no longer respected around the world. There are so many things that are happening.
